December 15th, 2012· Fixed incorrect MIDI message handling in the AAX plug-in on Mac OS X: this could cause unexpected parameter changes when starting/stopping playback in Pro Tools.
· Added a workaround in the VST 2 plug-in to ensure preset changes and parameter changes are correctly saved in Maschine by Native Instruments.
· Fixed possible crash when removing the VST 2 or VST 3 plug-in on Mac OS X while the interface is open, for example in Studio One.
· Fixed bug that could cause the interface not to appear at all in some hosts on Mac OS X, for example Triumph.
· Minor improvements and bug fixes on both Windows and Mac OS X.
December 3rd, 2012· All plug-ins now contain the GPU-powered graphics acceleration introduced in FabFilter Pro-DS, ensuring ultra-smooth animation while leaving the main CPU free to do audio processing.
· FabFilter Twin 2, Timeless 2 and Volcano 2 have a new Modulation button to easily show and hide the modulation section. By default, the modulation section is hidden to make the plug-in less intimidating at first, but you can easily look 'under the hood' when you want to tweak a preset or design your own.
· FabFilter Twin 2 displays a new keyboard section in the interface when the modulation section is hidden. The component display at the top of the interface contains a new Main EG component button, letting you easily tweak EG parameters when browsing presets.
· When multiple bands are selected in FabFilter Pro-Q, the Frequency, Gain and Q knobs will now let you change parameters of the selected bands while preserving their relative differences. Double-clicking a knob still lets you set all bands to the same value.
· Updated all VST 3 plug-ins to support new features in VST 3.5, such as a host-provided right-click menu for each parameter in the interface. Steinberg's CMC-AI controller is now also supported.
· Added mouse wheel support to buttons with pop-up menus, such as the distortion style button in FabFilter Saturn.
· Added Options > Open Other Preset option to the presets menu, making it easy to open a preset that's not in the regular presets folder.
· FabFilter Twin 2 and Timeless 2 now remember which section in the component display is expanded in Wide mode.
· Fixed compatibility issues with Adobe Premiere on Windows and OS X.
· Fixed a bug in the mono AudioSuite plug-ins that caused the Whole File option at the bottom to be disabled.
· The Mac OS X version now requires OS X 10.5 and an Intel processor. We still offer previous versions for download if you need OS X 10.4 or PowerPC support: www.fabfilter.com/support/downloads.
Other changes and bug fixes:
· In FabFilter Pro-Q, the Output level parameter that is displayed in the bottom bar now includes an additional decimal of precision.
· Fixed a bug in FabFilter Pro-Q that caused the "Pre" frequency analyzer to use slightly incorrect input values in Mid/side mode (so it would not totally overlap the Post curve).
· Fixed possible crashes or an empty interface in FabFilter Pro-DS with some graphics cards on both Windows and OS X.
· Fixed compatibility issues with WaveLab 6 in FabFilter Pro-DS and Saturn.
· Fixed a bug in the mono AU and mono VST 3 plug-ins that could cause it to work with an internal sample rate of 44.1 kHz even if the session sample rate was different.
· Fixed a bug in the resizable VST 2 plug-ins that could cause the interface to open with an incorrect size upon loading a saved session in e.g. Ableton Live.
· Fixed incorrect interpretation of parameter values that are typed in the host (e.g. for automation points) in the VST 2 and VST 3 plug-ins.
· Fixed a bug on Windows that caused factory preset installation to fail if your user name contains special characters.
April 12th, 2011· In addition to the RTAS format, all effect plug-ins are now also available in the AudioSuite format for Pro Tools.
· All plug-ins are now Unicode-aware and correctly handle international characters on both Windows and Mac OS X, for example in preset folders and file names.
· Improved the way parameter values with custom ranges and transforms are shown by Audio Unit hosts and Pro Tools (e.g. for automation purposes).
· Added a Deauthorize option to the plug-in's Help menu, which makes it easy to delete your license key from a computer if needed.
· In Twin 2 and Timeless 2: fixed bug that could cause the XLFO to run out of sync after a while.
· In Twin 2 and Timeless 2: fixed bug that caused the XLFO Phase Offset parameter to work incorrectly in combination with random steps. Also improved sonic behavior when dragging the phase offset across its"circular" boundary.
· In Twin 2 and Timeless 2: Improved mouse wheel scrolling and editing behavior.
· In Pro-C and Pro-L: It's now possible to enter positive values in the parameter value display for knobs with a negative-only range (like Threshold or Output Level). So for example, typing "0.3" will also result in "-0.3 dB".
· Fixed incorrect redrawing in the plug-in interface that could occur in some cases in Pro Tools on Mac, for example when selecting from the Pro Tools-provided presets menu in the plug-in header.
· Fixed bug that caused the help file to open only in the first instance of the plug-in.
July 20th, 2010· FabFilter Pro-Q: Fixed possible audible artifacts when enabling/disabling EQ bands.

· The detune and master tune parameters in the FabFilter Twin 2 synthesizer plug-in are now shown in semitones. In addition, you can enter the value with the keyboard using octaves and cents as well (e.g. '0.5 oct' or '50 cents').
· Fixed behavior of the Input Gain, Output Gain and Effect Mix knobs in the FabFilter Simplon filter plug-in.
